I didn't have a good night, I had forgotten to take an Aleve for my shoulder before going to bed. At 11:24 pm finally got out of bed and took one but it didn't take effect until morning. I'm thankful I can brush my hair and dress myself although getting a shirt off takes some thought and effort. Diane and Beth joined Ruth, Joan and I on the walk by speaker phone. They were walking in Gulf Shores while we walked here and that was almost as good as being together. We sure do laugh a lot with each other. We stopped at Mike's barn to see the progress. They were getting the floor ready to pour the cement.
We finished about 8:20 am which gave me plenty of time to cook breakfast, eat, then get ready to leave for Tremont by 8:50 am. We wanted to arrive before 9:30 am so we could go through the visitation line before going into church for the funeral. When we arrived Faith was standing right at the door and offered to let us cut but nope we wouldn't do that and went to the end of the line. Quite a few came in after us. We were able to share our condolences with June's family and get seated in a very full church just before 10:00 am. They weren't able to start the service on time as the line was still going on but that gave us time to listen to the beautiful voices of the choir as they sang songs June loved. The service was very touching as June had touched so many people during her 79 years. We didn't go to the cemetery and didn't' get a chance to talk to Amy but talked to cousin Mike for a bit before heading home. We stopped at Bartonville Hardware to pick up Mark's now fixed chain saw. Mom's mums were beautiful in the sunshine when we finally pulled in at home. So pretty I took a couple pictures. 
We changed quickly before going out for the first job of the day. Today is our last nice day for a while. The weather is going to turn cold tomorrow. The Salem camper needed to be moved into the barn and a Wildwood camper needed to be moved outside for the people coming to look at it. I'll post the FSX for sale next if the Wildwood sells.
Mark helped with the hooking up and unhooking each camper. Once the Wildwood was in place we tested all of the appliances to make sure they all worked. The next job was to removed the bandage from Lucy's leg. Mark stood in front of her, I used the hay bale to hold her against that and gave her grain to keep her busy while the bandage was removed then used the spray on bandage. The wound is healing very well.
Mark wanted to try out the chain saw next so he went home to cut down a tree. I stopped at Mike's barn as the concrete truck was backing in to his barn about then. This was the second truck. I stopped in to check out what they got done while we were at the funeral.
Tomorrow they will do the second half. When I got home the tree was almost ready to fall.
He was busy for a while cutting up that tree. This was a locust tree and the wood is very hard and burns really hot and long, perfect for wood burners once split.
The afternoon flew by and soon it was time to get ready for church again. We left at 6:00 pm and were the first in the parking lot. Dave Beutel had the message and because today is Veterans Day focused on that reading first in Deuteronomy and then in 2nd Timothy. It is not yet up on AC Central but hopefully will be posted here once it is up. We went to Culvers for a late supper and were joined by Pam, Theresa, her daughter Mary, Joan, Mackenson and Berlica. When we got home I started calling for the cat and was shocked to see her in the box I set up yesterday. She HAD her kittens IN THE BOX! I didn't disturb her, just put food and water out for her took the picture below and then locked her in the garage. Hopefully tomorrow I can see if she had 4 or 5 kittens. I think I could make out 4 of them and could see they were nursing.
